Rob Henry does appear in the index of my screwed up 1870 Census CD, but is not where the index says he should be in the listing. I do not find him in Suez Township in the 1900 Census. Nor do I see this family or any other Peters family in Suez Township in the 1920 Census. He does not appear as a land owner in 1875. He could still be in Mercer County in another Township. Any other clues?
